Trögelsby

Trögelsbyhof No. 5, stable from 1898

Trögelsby ( Danish Troelsby ) is the name of a place in the city of Flensburg , which is in the eastern part of Engelsby . It is on the outskirts of the Vogelsang district .

Origin and naming

When exactly Trögelsby was created is unclear. With its name ending " -by ", which rather indicates a larger settlement, a village, it is reasonable to assume that Trögelsby, like many of the former villages in the area, for example Engelsby , might have emerged as a daughter village of Adelby in the Viking Age . But there is no evidence to support such a presumption. It was not until 1420 that the small area, in the middle of angling , was first mentioned as "Truelbul". In the 15th century there were also the two variants of the name Truwelsbul (1452) and Truwelszbüll (1438). Therefore, the name of the area probably has the meaning "Apartment des Truel" or, if one proceeds from today's spelling, "Apartment des Trögel". “Truel” is likely to represent a variant or spelling of the old Danish male name “Thrugils” or its variant “Troels”, which is still widespread today.

It is therefore assumed that the ending "-bull" was the original ending. Only later was the ending evidently reinterpreted to "-by" (first used in 1438 with the variant "Truwelby"), which could lead one to believe that the settlement there was a bit larger. But around 1400 there was apparently nothing that would remind of an entire village.

Trögelsby in the 15th century

Around 1400 there was apparently only the estate of the nobleman Peter Lund in the said area, so that there should not have been very many buildings there. Peter Lund also owned the neighboring Vogelsang to the northeast .

Peter Lund's daughter Catharina gave away a part of the Trögelsbyer estate, then around 1430 to the Marienkirche , the Hof Vogelsang received the St. Jürgenhospital (cf. St. Jürgen-Kirche (Flensburg) ). So since then there have been two farms in the Trögelsby area and a third farm in the Vogelsang area. Soon afterwards the Marienkirche got the second Trögelsbyer Hof. A little bit west of the two courtyards was the Kate Schiedengatt, which was first mentioned in 1436. The area in question was also called Klein Trögelsby.

Trögelsby since the 19th century

The Speckberg

According to an old oral tradition, an incense house is said to have burned behind one of the Trögelsbyer Höfe around 1800. In the fire, the sides of bacon are said to have blown up with a loud bang. They had flown as far as a hill nearby. After this incident, the hill is said to have been named Speckberg. Alternatively, it would also be possible that only a pantry was embedded in the hill there , for storing cool food. The street Speckberg ( Lage ) was officially named on July 5, 1979. The houses Trögelsbyhof 2, 2A, 4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 6A, 6B, 6C were originally assigned to the Speckberg under the same numbers. The reassignment took place around the end of the 1980s.

The incorporation with Twedt to Flensburg

In 1874 the two farms were taken over by the economist Peter Jessen Petersen. He came from Joldelund and already owned a farm in nearby Twedt . He died in 1902. The area was incorporated as part of Twedt, like Vogelsang, in 1910.

Trögelsby in recent times

In the 1980s, parts of the Trögelsby area were built over with single-family houses, which means that Trögelsby has really grown together with Flensburg to the north and west. The pavement of the same name "Klein Trögelsby" (since July 5, 1979) as well as the small pond there, where the mentioned cottage stood, still reminds of Klein Trögelsby. A street in the area now also reminds of the aforementioned Speckberg (also since July 5, 1979). The hill that was probably there is leveled nowadays. The courtyards in Trögelsby today have their origins in the medieval aristocratic court, but their buildings are more recent. The two houses date from around 1850 and the farm buildings probably from around 1905. Both the Trögelsbyer Weg and the wide field path Trögelsbyhof end in Trögelsby. The Trögelsbyer Weg, a traffic road, begins in the west on the edge of Adelby and leads over almost the entire width of Engelsby to Trögelsby. The Trögelsbyhof field path begins around Rüllschau , near Maasbüll, and leads via today's Vogelsang district to Trögelsby.
